Poor cab heat

radman, you'll have to start a new thread on the thermacter and draftbobulator. Pics will help in solving the problem. Whew........I sure hope its not as tough as the cab heat problem.

p.s. Glad to see you get the heat problem fixed. Now Deere and their dealers should know what to look for. In fact they should put out an update notice.
Sincerely,
DIRT

Ran the tractor past couple of days. Temp near 10. Engine and cab heat now as expected and can maintain the heat. Just finished blading off some light snow. All is right in my little world.

Yahoo! It looks like Deere engineering came through.

Congradulations.
The other day I backed my 4320 out of the garage and left it at idle in the driveway for over an hour. It was -21 below with a little wind. When I got back I was shocked to climb in the cab and it was cozy warm in the cab. The controls were not even on high.

This is the one thread I've logged on for. I know you're thrilled it's fixed but now what am I going to read??? Anyone else have a nearly unsolvable problem that can be posted? Maybe we should help the President with Iraq.

I had some colder weather today it was 22 degrees this morning. I checked the heater on my Montana and got the following results. After 6 minutes it was blowing out warm air from the vents. After ten minutes the cab was starting to get warm enough to be comfortable. I checked this by starting the tractor up letting it sit at an idle and then seeing how long it took to warm up. I did not do any work with it or do anything other than let it sit at an idle. The tractor was sitting outside and the windows were covered in ice. I did close off the vents to the outside fresh air.

Was this a test or did you forget that you had cranked it up?

Yes...... I forgot that I had backed out of the garage. I can't believe you figured that out, I should of known. I backed it out of the garage to get the skidsteer out. I used the skidsteer to load the sander to go sand a driveway real quick then return and use the tractor to go do some driveways in the area. Well I got sidetracked and didn't remember it was in the driveway running till I got back. With the 50 50 blend fuel in the tank I was pleased to see it was still running considering it was at a low idle.
Anyway you proved that this is a very clever bunch not much gets by U's.

I finally got a chance to try out the tractor after the dealer fixed the roof seal. Wow, what a difference! After a 15 minute warm up at 1,500 rpm I ran it up to 2,700 and started to blow snow, within 5 minutes I had my jacket off and was turning the heat down. I am now a very happy camper.
